HIDE SMILES / InChI
Allomethadione is an anticonvulsant. It was used for the treatment of epilepsy. Allomethadione appears to have the advantage over tridione (another anticonvulsant) in not producing ataxia or gastric irritation. Photophobia is common in patients taking tridione but allomethadione did not produce photophobia. The drug causes renal damage. The compound has been marketed in Europe.
